Since it was a new Pill Formula, Su Qing's initial attempts at Alchemy were mostly failures.
He failed seven times in a row.
Only then did Su Qing barely manage to grasp the proper sequence and Fire Control for all the medicinal ingredients in the Nourishing Yuan Pill.
On his eighth attempt,
he failed during the Melt Pill stage.
On his ninth attempt,
he successfully refined four Nourishing Yuan Pills.
On his tenth attempt,
he failed.
Su Qing's ten sets of medicinal ingredients were now completely gone.
[Nourishing Yuan Pill: Solidifies the foundation and cultivates Yuan. It repairs and stabilizes the meridians of Cultivators who have suffered damage or have inherently weak meridians.]
'Four Nourishing Yuan Pills.'
'What a huge loss. I knew the first few Alchemy attempts would be failures!'
Though the loss stung, Su Qing was still happy about the Nourishing Yuan Pills he'd managed to create.
'If I can succeed once, what's to stop me from succeeding a second time?'
